1. Is the guide/driver really for us only, or are we sharing with another group of visitors? I see that the group size can be up to 10 but we are just a family of 4 (two adult and 2 kids of ages 5 and 7), so hope to confirm about this.

2. We are really keen to visit the Ghibli park, and that's why I am looking into this option. But the kids may also be interested in the train museum at Tokyo, and the Doraemon museum at Kawasaki. Is it possible to accommodate that in the trips, or exchange with some other places?

Is the guide included in the whole trip from hotel pick throughout the day? Is the price of admission included for the Ghibli theme park?

To answer your questions: Yes, our tour has included the airport transportation and the transportation to the each attraction listed on the itinerary. Please note that the driver/tour guide works 10 hours a day for the tour. Yes, we have included the tickets to each attraction include the theme pari Ghibli.

Our family just completed the tour arranged by UME Travel, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Everything was well organized, and having a private guide made the trip much more relaxing. We loved visiting Tokyo, Kyoto, and Hiroshima at our own pace. The guide was knowledgeable and very friendly with our kids. Hotels were comfortable and transportation was smooth. What we appreciated most was the flexibility to customize parts of the itinerary. UME Travel really made our first trip to Japan unforgettable, and we would happily recommend them to anyone planning a family trip.Show more

We just finished our first trip to Japan with UME Travel and had an amazing experience. Since it was our first time visiting Japan, we weren’t sure where to start, but the team did a great job arranging activities that matched our interests. The communication throughout the entire process was smooth and responsive, which made planning the trip much easier. Our guide, Koko, was very knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience even more enjoyable. Having a guided tour really helped us save time and allowed us to see and do more without worrying about the logistics. I would definitely recommend UME Travel to anyone visiting Japan for the first time, especially if you want a well-organized trip and a stress-free experience.Show more
